To transform a laser into a successful medical device requires intense and careful cooperation between industry and research paired with commitment and the sense for the right moment. Evaluation of medical and social benefits, the power of competing techniques, rules and regulations, financing and reimbursement issues play their role in the development and placement of a medical-approved device or procedure. Further-more, all medical procedures need continuous reconsideration with respect to competing techniques and with regard to use-fulness and outcome. This panel focuses on the ways of cooperation to make biophotonic innovations work, from bench to bedside by views of clinicians, researchers, engineers and industry. Medical, scientific and industrial representatives will provide information about their specific tasks and efforts to launch a specific device or procedure.

3D-Printing: Laser-Based Additive Manufacturing for the Production of Metal Parts

Tuesday, June 23, 2015, 10:00–12:20

Chairmen: Dr. Dieter Schwarze, SLM Solutions GmbH,Dr. Wilhelm Meiners, Fraunhofer Institute for Lasertechnology ILT

The additive manufacturing processes most commonly used for metallic components are Selective Laser Melting (SLM) for producing new parts, and Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) for repairing and modifying existing components. Since they manu-facture without tools and offer a great freedom of geometry, these additive processes enable functionally optimized com-ponents to be produced, e.g. in automobile, tools as well in aviation and turbine construction. In addition, the industry expects, above all, a significant increase in resource and energy efficiency during the entire life cycle of a product thanks to the use of functionally optimized components as well as to flexible repair strategies. For this reason, these processes are increa-singly making their way into industrial manufacturing chains. In this panel, practical examples from industrial applications will be presented in addition to a process overview.

Chairmen: Dr. Rüdiger Brockmann, Director Industry- and Product-Management, TRUMPF Laser- und Systemtechnik GmbH, Dr. Hans-Joachim Krauß, Head of Services, Bayerisches Laserzentrum GmbH

During the past decade, the laser was established as a standard tool for welding, cutting, brazing and many other applications in the automotive industry. However, new concepts for both e-driven mobiles as well as conventional vehicles, which are driven by combustion engines, require new solutions for higher efficiency. In the body area, increased efficiency can be reached by a light-weight approach. Therefore, new materials as well as new design concepts are introduced. The laser technology enables innovative production processes for this approach. It can be used for joining of dissimilar materials (e.g. copper and aluminum or plastic and metal). Furthermore, processes for cutting, joining and structuring of fiber-reinforced plastics are developed. In the power-train area, the laser is used to increase or reduce friction, or to allow new designs which save weight. This application panel shows an overview about the latest appli-cations and developments of laser-based production techno-logies and laser technology itself.

High-Coherence Metrology from Long-Distance to Nanoscale Dimensions

Tuesday, June 23, 2015, 10:00–12:20

Chairmen: Dr. Patrick Leisching, TOPTICA Photonics AG,Dr. Christian V. Poulsen, NKT Photonics A/S

This panel presents the state of the art of non-contact metrology techniques employing high-coherence laser systems. The presentations introduce selected applications along with the enabling laser technology. The session also explores the strategies for next-generation applications and elucidates the corresponding requirements for future laser systems. High-lighted use-cases range from long-distance metrology employed in space-borne or geoscience applications, to large-volume metrology for intermediate-sized objects such as aircrafts, on to small-volume metrology, e.g., for high-precision metal working, thin film metrology on scales of 1 to 100 mm, and finally to nanometrology that accurately measures critical dimensions of semiconductor devices.

Terahertz Spectroscopy and Inspection in Industrial Applications

Tuesday, June 23, 2015, 14:40–17:00

Chairmen: Dr. Thomas Renner, TOPTICA Photonics AG,Prof. Dr. Martin Schell, HHI Fraunhofer Institute for Telecommunications

Terahertz radiation is very attractive for non-destructive testing because many industrially relevant materials like synthetics, polymers, textiles, paper and cardboard are transparent here. In addition, many gases and organic solids—including toxic or explosive substances—show characteristic absorption lines. New laser-based technologies now enable the generation and detection of Terahertz radiation without cryogenic tempera-tures or complex RF electronic devices. This enables Terahertz to migrate from lab settings to industrial environments as a tool for measurement of layer thickness, humidity, chemical composition or hidden defect structures. Experts from laser and component manufacturers, as well as solution providers for plastic inspection, paper industry, medical industries and homeland security will report about the latest developments on Terahertz technology.
